I burned my thumb taking a
pan out of the oven and spent the next two hours sitting around with an ice bag
on it to stop the pain. I was reminded of my Grandma Colby, who was a no nonsense,
black and white believer. Grandma accepted that some people would go to hell;
however, it was the pain associated with a small burn that caused her empathy
for those who would suffer in eternity. Jesus said, “And if your eye causes you
to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with
one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell” (Matt 18:9
NIV).
